Product details
Overview
SMBJ58CA-M3/5B from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for robust overvoltage protection of sensitive electronics. It features a 58 V standoff voltage (VWM), 64.4–71.2 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), clamping voltage of 93.6 V at 6.4 A, and operates across –55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range - deployed in industrial sensor signal lines and telecom interface protection.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ58CA-M3/5B datasheet, SMBJ58CA-M3/5B pinout, SMBJ58CA-M3/5B application, or SMBJ58CA-M3/5B equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, bidirectional clamping behavior, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), RoHS-compliant halogen-free construction, and direct replacement guidance for surge-prone DC power rails and data line protection.
Technical Context
This bidirectional TVS diode uses a glass-passivated silicon junction to achieve fast response time (<1 ns), low incremental surge resistance, and stable clamping under repetitive transients. Its symmetrical I-V characteristics enable identical protection in both polarities without polarity marking on the device body.
Rated for 600 W peak pulse power with 10/1000 µs waveform and 0.01% duty cycle, it sustains 6.4 A peak pulse current (IPPM) while limiting voltage to 93.6 V - critical for safeguarding 48 V industrial bus interfaces and Ethernet PHY front-ends against ESD and lightning-induced surges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 58 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; defines safe DC bias margin for 48 V systems. |
| VBR (min/max) | 64.4 V / 71.2 V at 1 mA - guaranteed breakdown threshold ensures predictable turn-on during transient events. |
| VC @ IPPM | 93.6 V at 6.4 A - clamping voltage limits stress on downstream ICs during 600 W surge events. |
| PPPM | 600 W - peak pulse power handling per 10/1000 µs waveform supports IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3/4 compliance testing. |
| IPPM | 6.4 A - peak surge current capability directly correlates to protected line impedance and transient energy absorption. |
| TJ max. | +150 °C - high junction temperature rating enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures without forced cooling. |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - thermal resistance informs PCB copper pad design (0.2" × 0.2") for sustained power dissipation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), surface-mount, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, matte tin-plated terminals solderable per J-STD-002. No polarity marking - bidirectional symmetry eliminates orientation concerns during automated placement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode / Cathode (symmetrical) | Transient conduction path | Identical bidirectional conduction - either terminal serves as anode or cathode depending on transient polarity; no mounting orientation constraint. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables single-device protection against high-energy surges per IEC 61000-4-5, reducing need for cascaded protection stages. |
| 93.6 V clamping voltage at 6.4 A | Provides 35.6 V headroom below typical 130 V MOSFET VDS rating, preventing gate oxide damage in 48 V motor drives. |
| MSL Level 1 (260 °C peak reflow) | Supports standard lead-free SMT assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns or baking requirements. |
| Low profile SMB package (4.57 mm × 3.94 mm) | Minimizes PCB footprint while maintaining thermal mass for surge energy absorption in space-constrained modules. |
| Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant (M3 suffix) | Meets environmental compliance mandates for industrial and telecom equipment shipped globally. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ58CA-E3/5B | Same electrical specs and SMB package; RoHS-compliant but contains brominated flame retardants (non-halogen-free). | Acceptable where halogen-free requirement is not mandated (e.g., non-automotive commercial equipment). | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs halogen-free compliance; identical layout and performance. |
| SMCJ58CA-M3 | Higher 1500 W peak pulse power, larger SMC (DO-214AB) package (7.11 mm × 6.22 mm), same VWM/VC ratings. | Better suited for higher-energy surges (e.g., outdoor telecom cabinets); requires PCB footprint revision. | Choose when system-level surge testing exceeds 600 W or when extended thermal margin is required. |
Compared with SMBJ58CA-E3/5B, the M3 variant adds halogen-free compliance without performance trade-offs; versus SMCJ58CA-M3, SMBJ58CA-M3/5B offers 40% smaller footprint and sufficient surge rating for most industrial 48 V applications - enabling compact, compliant, and cost-optimized designs.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMBJ58CA-M3/5B at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 93.6 V at its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 6.4 A under 10/1000 µs waveform conditions. This value is measured per JEDEC standards and ensures downstream components remain within safe operating voltage limits during surge events. The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B achieves this clamping performance while maintaining bidirectional symmetry and low leakage (<1 µA at 58 V).
Is SMBJ58CA-M3/5B suitable for automotive applications?
SMBJ58CA-M3/5B is halogen-free and RoHS-compliant but not AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive use, Vishay offers the HM3-suffixed variants (e.g., SMBJ58CAHM3_B/I) with full AEC-Q101 qualification. The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B remains appropriate for non-safety-critical automotive body electronics where qualification is not mandated, provided thermal and surge margins are validated per ISO 7637-2. Always verify compliance requirements before using SMBJ58CA-M3/5B in vehicle systems.
How does the bidirectional nature of SMBJ58CA-M3/5B affect PCB layout?
The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B has no polarity marking and identical electrical behavior in both directions, eliminating orientation constraints during placement. This simplifies automated assembly and reduces risk of misorientation-related failures. PCB layout requires symmetric 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads per terminal to meet thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) and surge current handling. No silkscreen polarity indicator is needed - the SMBJ58CA-M3/5B functions identically regardless of terminal assignment.
What is the maximum operating temperature for SMBJ58CA-M3/5B?
The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B has a specified operating junction temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C. Its thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) means that at 5.0 W steady-state power dissipation, junction temperature rises 500 °C above ambient - but actual continuous dissipation is limited to 5.0 W only with infinite heatsink; in typical SMB layout, derating applies above 25 °C ambient. The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B reliably operates in sealed industrial enclosures up to +85 °C ambient when surge duty cycle remains low.
Does SMBJ58CA-M3/5B meet any industry surge immunity standards?
The SMBJ58CA-M3/5B supports compliance with IEC 61000-4-5 (surge immunity) up to Level 3 (2 kV line-to-earth, 1 kV line-to-line) and Level 4 (4 kV line-to-earth, 2 kV line-to-line) when used with appropriate PCB layout and system-level filtering. Its 600 W peak pulse power rating aligns with 10/1000 µs waveform requirements in these standards. While the SMBJ58CA-M3/5B itself is not certified, its parameters enable system-level pass rates - validation must be performed in final application context per IEC 61000-4-5 test setup.
